atleast you were wearing gear... that is the good thing.. and you said you have a rash on your wrist? and got out of the shower in 2 min.. bro.. try this on for size.. and I scrubbed it myself with a fingernail brush to get the tar out of the wound... which by the way.. the doctors said I didnt have to do. but I didnt do it on my back and it turned a gray color when healed and sticks out bad and my leg turned a pink color and sticks out bad.. so I guess either way.. it sticks out bad. LOL

Glad it wasn't a really bad crash and you came out OK. The bike parts can be repleaced. Toss the helmet, you never know, so don't take a chance. Hope you get back on the saddle soon!

Sounds like you'll be ok and I would get the bike put on a frame machine to see if its strait and check all the welds. Todays bikes are great but not very crash worthy, and get a new helmet. Minor or not you dont know if its still good to protect your head.
